By 8 a.m. every site needs the same three answers: what got done yesterday, how many approved hours did it cost, and did anything unsafe happen? Most firms still assemble that answer from a form filled at the trailer, a timesheet spreadsheet and a phone call to the safety officer. Construction daily report software exists to make that answer a single view — and to make it your data, on your hosting, for one flat annual license instead of per-seat rent.
The daily report is the only record that is complete before the money decisions start: what to schedule today, whether to chase a supplier, whether a crew is paid correctly at the end of the month. When it lives in three places, the version in the email is the one that gets disputed. When it lives in one system, every number can be traced back to the source — the task it was worked on, the timesheet entry it was approved from, the HSE entry it references.
That traceability is what makes the daily report more than a log. It becomes the input for everything downstream: billing, progress claims, payroll, the next day's plan.
ProjectDone PMS builds the daily report from three modules that share one database, so nothing has to be exported or reconciled:
| Module | What it contributes to the daily report |
|---|---|
| Reports & tasks | Yesterday's completed and started tasks, percent complete, open RFIs and change orders blocking progress. |
| Timesheets | Costed hours with rates and approval state — the report shows approved hours separately from unapproved, so the number is defensible. |
| HSE / safety | Incident entries with severity, photos and corrective actions, plus a "no incidents" record so the absence of problems is documented. |
Because all three write to the same system, a number in the daily report can always be drilled back to the task, the timesheet row or the HSE entry it came from. No reconciliation spreadsheet, no "which version is real" conversation.
Per-seat construction platforms typically publish prices in the €15–40 per user per month range. Here is what that model costs a 25-person firm, as pure arithmetic on those published price models:
| Model | 25 people, 1 year | 25 people, 3 years | Where your data lives |
|---|---|---|---|
| Per-seat SaaS at €15/user/mo | €4,500 | €13,500 | The vendor's cloud |
| Per-seat SaaS at €40/user/mo | €12,000 | €36,000 | The vendor's cloud |
| ProjectDone PMS Standard | €999 | €2,997 | Your own hosting |
Figures for the SaaS rows are illustrative arithmetic on commonly published per-seat price ranges — not a claim about any specific vendor's product or your actual quote.
The demo is a live installation with seeded construction data — three projects, ten tasks, timesheets, invoices. The login is printed on the page. No signup, no call, no credit card.

General contractors, fit-out and renovation firms, and specialty trades with crews — roughly 5 to 100 people — who want the daily site report to be a single defensible view instead of three fragments, and who prefer their operational records on infrastructure they actually own. If that is you, the demo takes thirty seconds and answers most questions. The full system is covered on the self-hosted overview.
